    Krispy Kreme

    I know u want this change but how bad??? When u are strong enough to walk away from the doughnuts and don't look back your ready. You will not b able to eat like that initially post op but the cravings and head hunger remains. Then there will come a time when u can eat it, what will u choose??? Start taking baby steps in the other direction, we want success for u. This is major surgery a true second chance at life. I know u want that more than food run towards that. We r all here to support u and need u to support us. We all get weak!

    What motivates you?

    To live life and stop feeling like I'm chasing it. This feeling is soooo good I just don't want to ever loose it.

    Advice needed

    Please talk to your doc. The vitamins r a must so they have to figure something out. I also have some that can be mixed in a drink they look like crystal light but u can drink them. Ask your doc first.

  8. I agree with everyone. I cried too, but food grossed me out so I didn't miss it. I stayed in the bed a lot resting watching tv and sleeping I had a lot of pain. Walk as much as possible it really helps with the gas. Best Wishes

    Dry Mouth

    My mouth was really dry after surgery too. It was weird. I sleep with a large ice water on the night stand so I'm drinking all night as I flip over (lol) it will get better your body goes through so many changes
  18. You lost 60 pounds! That is awesome. Don't b so hard on yourself. My tummy hangs too allow your body time to do what it's gonna do in the mean time I wear spanx all the time to keep everything smooth and tight. hang in there
  19. It's hard to get a lot of things in, in the beginning. Take it slow but keep trying the protein is VERY important. Best Wishes and Congrats!
  20. 3/26/13 I was 4 months post op and I'm down 50lbs. This is an amazing feeling. I love seeing the changes my body is making. I LOVE getting dressed to go out, it's so fun now and it use to b such a drag. I love this new life, I pray I am able to hold on to this feeling forever!

    For vets..please comment

    Absolutely! Don't b so hard on yourself. You didn't gain overnight and you will not loose overnight. Your using the tool correctly so trust it, trust yourself and celebrate how far u have come don't worry about how far u have to go!
  23. I would talk to the doc. It really depends on you, your progress and health. Best Wishes!
  24. I agree. The info has to remain confidential. If not I would talk to an attorney. Share what u want to share or don't share at all. Some people r so judgmental and discouraging. Best Wishes!
